Shun looked at his back before entering the room

“Ahh this is the best! Now I got rid of both of them, I appreciate Vince’s help but lately there hasn’t been any improvement in my Stealth, I’m glad I freed up even more time”

Shun relaxed his body while leaning on the wall

‘Hmm?’

He felt a familiar presence entering Catherin’s room, as she was his only helper here he paid quite the attention to her whereabouts and her guests, and so far this was the first guest she welcomed into her room

‘I wonder who it is?’

He didn’t know many people so the familiar presence was only limited to a few people

He didn’t dally about guessing and instead checked directly, he was surprised to find the girl from earlier, Fiola, talking amiably with Catherin

‘Let’s see here, she is saying…’

He focused his eyes on their lips so as to read them, he had been practicing in his free time latly so he was quite okay with it, though he still missed some words

After listening for quite a while he made out most of their conversation which seemed to be about politics this and troubles that

‘Nothing to see here’

He was about to leave when suddenly Fiola moved her hand toward Catherin…..

“So little Cathy~ wanna have some fun~”

Fiola said seductively as she brushed her hand over Catherin’s thigh

Catherin instantly moved her leg away and tried to remain as respectful as possible

“Sorry miss Fiola, I happen to have been training previously and I am quite sweaty right now”

“That’s even better~ you know I like it when you give off that string smell of yours~~”

Catherin could only smile awkwardly at Fiola, previously the two of them were in a physical relationship, they were both bona fide man haters who took shelter with one another, but now that she had her master she dared not play around, or rather, she didn’t want to play around

“I’m sorry miss Fiola right now I’m… quite not in the mood…”

Fiola frowned and ceased her attempts, then she asked with a cold tone

“Is it because of that peasant that caused you trouble? I heard you actually had to carry that filth all the way to the medical ward, it must have been tough on you”

By the end of her words her eyes seem to have softened, and her hands reached out again for Catherin’s thigh, this time for a comforting touch

‘How annoying’ Catherin thought, but just as she was about to dodge and evade further she felt a tremor next to her heart, then her eyes seamed to understand something before she stopped her earlier action

“Hmm yes it was that kid that caused my mood to dim, He’s quite the annoying one that one”

“Tell me about it, he is indeed one hateful being, but worry not for I will make him pay dearly, I will shred his dignity to pieces until there is nothing left”

Fiola’s frown then transitioned into a playful smile as she maneuvered her hands further into Catherin’s inner thighs

“Enough about that, how about we continue were we left off last month? While I was away I missed your touch dearly”

Instead of dodging Catherin thrust her hip forward with a seductive smile of her own

Fiola’s hands playfully made their way between Catherin’s plump thigh’s, and finally reached their destination, they started moving about with haste

Catherin smiled seductively while she thrust her hips even more toward Fiola, allowing her even more access

At this point both the women and the girl were breathing heavily, Fiola seemed to have entered into heat as she moved forward to start the real match

Knock Knock!

That’s when a knock interrupted both beauties, Fiola instinctively retracted her hands in fear as she gazed at the door, if she was to be caught in the act with another woman her reputation would go down the drain as a noble and pure woman

Catherin didn’t seem to have taken that into mind though as she yelled for the person to enter

“What are you doing!” Fiola whispered

“Shit! force of habit” Catherin grunted in response but it was too late, the door fully opened to reveal the innocent face of… Shun

“You! Why are you here!”

“Hmm? You are?... Ah that miss fiasco, well that should be my line, I am here to thank miss Catherin for her help the other day”

“You! You! You animal! Its Fernasko, and no one needs your apology now leave!”

“Is this your room or the Catherin’s? Just step to the side and be quite”

Shun turned to Catherin who seemed to be holding her anger in

“Thank you miss Catherin”

Shun bowed slightly to Catherin saying so, now it was Catherin’s turn to talk but she seemed to be struggling with herself quite a lot, this received weird looks form both Shun and Fiola, as both of the urged her with their own intentions

“Ye…s are you done…now? Please… leave”

Catherin gritted her teeth and said unwillingly, she seemed to have said those words with her blood boiling, in turn Fiola took it as extreme anger and embarrassment so she turned hastily toward Shun

“You hear her right? No one wants a maggot like you here now get out”

She yelled while pointing at the door, to this Shun just shrugged and left, not before giving Catherin a weird look as he went out

“Ugh that animal! If I didn’t have to duel him, I would have buried him right here right now! Wouldn’t you Cathy?”

Turning around she was surprised by Catherin’s appearance, for she looked as if she was enduring some unbearable pain

“Hey are you okay? Did you get too stressed? Maybe we should go beat him right now”

“No… miss Fiola, that would… tarnish your…image…if only I had a way… to beat him…rightfully…”

Catherin said with labored breaths, her words seemed to be just her venting some anger but it hit Fiola with a great idea

“Hey I have an idea how about I assign you as a trainer! That way you can beat him to your heart’s content and no one would think you are assaulting him!”

Fiola smiled at her “own” genius idea, but looking at Catherin again she lost her enthusiasm

“Maybe... you shouldn’t go near him too much, forget it I’ll assign him someone else”

“No!....I will do it…. Thank…you….Can you…leave please… I’m at my limit…”

Fiola didn’t know what to say to being kicked out, but after thinking about the injustice Catherin just suffered she attributed it to the vermin she hated and chocked it up as more grievances to pay back later, she then hugged the frozen still Catherin as she said goodbye before leaving

….A Minute after Fiola went away Shun went back into Catherin’s room, when he entered he was all smiles, just as he was about to praise Catherin he suddenly heard a dong

Looking toward Catherin he saw her kowtowing to him with her head smashed into the floor

“Catherin! What’s wrong with you? Get up”

“Please forgive me master, how could the lowly I accept your bow, please forgive me I would never, please spare my soul I repent, I repent!”

Shun held a puzzled look on his face, he nonetheless tried to pull Catherin up from the floor but was unsuccessful, she on the other hand kept repeating her words about repenting and apologizing

“Okay okay I get it; I forgive you now can you please get up”

Upon hearing the words forgive Catherin finally calmed down and loosned her muscles, but when he said get up she stood ram rod straight, then bent her back in a bow

“Umm, can you..sit down?”

Catherin Kneeled on the floor, with her back still bent

“…Catherin?”

“Yes Master”

“Explain to me why you’re doing this?”

“Master, when you had…bowed to me, pain filled my entire body, I felt that if, and only if, I perhaps accepted that bow, my soul would have…self-destructed”

“Self-destructed? Catherin I merely bowed!”

“I am your slave master, I could never accept you belittle yourself in front of myself, not when I am the target of comparison”

“…sigh, fine I will keep that in mind, anyway thank you for playing along, I hope you didn’t mind what Fiola did, well I did give you a choice to not do so though”

“Master, me and her had went way further down the line than that, this is nothing to me, plus, I kind of enjoy teasing her a little”

“Alright, well I’m happy I didn’t force you into anything”

At this point Catherin looked up with a naughty grin on her face, but she didn’t look toward Shun’s face, instead she looked at another part of him that was much more noticeable now

“No master, I am happy to have given you a good show, your little brother seemed to have enjoyed our little show~”

Shun could only smile awkwardly as he turned around whilst coughing

“Never mind that, once you have calmed down and changed go arrange the time of practice with Fiola, that way we will train both at morning and night”

“Yes my master”

Catherin answered enthusiastically before going to the bathroom to change, Shun on the other hand looked through the wall and locked onto the angry Fiola’s location

‘Your words, I will make you swallow’

He was able to keep his calm but that didn’t mean he didn’t want to bash her face in, in fact he was going to do just that, but instead of alone he would do it in front of the whole crowed at the arena

He then went to his room to rest, but, just like with Vince, he saw a figure standing at the door, he had seen its presence though when he was coming

‘That reminds me, why had I not sensed Vince at that time?’

Although he was curious he put it at the back of his mind and focused on the figure in front of him, for this figure demanded his full attention or he might screw up big

“What brings you here, Rekka”

The red headed figure was indeed the one with the Arm’s Mastery, Rekka, who was currently acting as a prominent figure in the group

Rekka turned to Shun slowly, letting his eyes pierce through him for a moment, trying to discern his intentions, after looking quite satisfied with what he found he nodded his head and spoke

“As long as you’re not in the wrong, I will help you”

With only those words he turned around and left, never giving a glance back or letting Shun speak

“Whew what a handful this fellow is; from one glance I can tell I can’t beat him no matter what method I use”

Something told Shun that there was more to this boy Rekka, he couldn’t quite put his hand on it but he just knew there was something off about him

“Well whatever, as long as he’s not my enemy, he’s not a threat”

Shrugging he entered the room and rested till the next day
